-------------------
"Come on [B/N]!" [Name] shouted as loud as she could for her brother as he swam as fast as he could.

"eh?" Makoto looked across the room and saw a beautiful teenage girl with [h/l] [h/c] hair and vibrant [e/c] eyes, shouting for a boy that was competing against Iwatobi. He'd never seen her before but, he couldn't take his eyes off her now. It was weird for him to be entranced by anyone or anything before, seeing as it's never happened before.

The night continued, however, without any contact being made between the two even though Makoto continued to steal glances of her. The boy she'd been cheering for had won and surprisingly, Makoto didn't care in the least. He was upset whatsoever for the simple fact that he got to see such a beautiful smile on her face.

Once everyone exited the building and went home, Makoto couldn't help but feel sad for the fact that he'd never see the girl again nor did he he try to make contact. He'd just have to forget about her, he figured. That is until a week later that same girl was transferred into his class.
At this point, anyone would have felt it was fate and would strike up a conversation with that person. Not Makoto though. It wasn't that he was scared or nervous, quite the opposite actually seeing as she gave off such a welcoming vibe. That didn't do anything for Makoto though. He just never felt it was the right time.

Several months after [Name] transferred into his class, Makoto realized how important it is to take an opportunity before it's too late. For that night, the night he had decided he'd talk to [Name] at school the following day... She had passed away due to a car accident. She was the only one whom was severely injured.

Makoto cried after discovering the cruel fact that he'd never get to talk to her afterall. He hated the fact that he'd wasted time by just watching from afar for no real reason.

[Last Name] [First Name] had made an impression on Makoto that would last forever. An impression that would guide him for the rest of his life.
